The huge Dading Prefecture was in chaos.
This is a city with a population of 800,000, but now these people are fleeing through the four city gates with their families.
The commander-in-chief of the city guards, Yuan Biao, received an order from the Second Prince. From this moment on, he and all the city guards were under the command of Tang Qianjun.
The situation in the inner city had long been clear. The entire royal family had become hostages of the so-called friendly forces. He and the families of his generals had also become hostages. What could he do?
Why is this battle so confusing?
He felt that he could no longer understand what was going on.
The Second Prince started a rebellion and led them to occupy the outer city and attack the inner city. The inner city was about to be taken, but then a friendly army with extremely powerful combat effectiveness descended from the sky.
This friendly force captured the inner city and arrested all the royal family members and court officials - he thought it was the Second Prince's intention, but he didn't expect that the Second Prince was also one of the prisoners!
What exactly are the friendly forces?
Finally he realized that it was the Marines of Da Xia!
Only then did he realize that the guy who patted him on the shoulder and called him brother was the commander of this army. His name was He Sandao!
Is this friendly army robbing the enemy?
What else can he do now? He was at the mercy of others, so he had no choice but to obey the Second Prince's orders and come before Tang Qianjun.
"Take one hundred thousand city guards and go door to door to drive out the remaining civilians. Move all the food stored in everyone's homes into the inner city. Hurry, the enemy will be here soon!"
"Okay, I'll go right away!"
Yuan Biao was puzzled. The enemy was arriving soon, so who the hell was the enemy?
The fifth prince Yelu Shuai's imperial guards were also handed over to Tang Qianjun. He made some arrangements again and asked these people to go to the outer city wall to prepare all necessary defensive supplies.
He Sandao suddenly had more than 300,000 people. He changed his previous plan of only defending the inner city. He decided to defend the entire Dading Prefecture.
It’s a pity that I don’t have a red cannon, but I have 400,000 rounds of Mauser rifle bullets!
"Pass my order to all members of the Marine Corps. Leave 500 men to guard the prisoners, and all others to rest where they are. Also, release all the cooks in the imperial kitchen and assign someone to supervise their cooking. Make more delicious food. Only when they are well fed will they have the strength to fight."
He Sandao gave an order to Zhao Lizhu, who took it and left.
Cui Mingyue sat across from He Sandao and asked curiously, "Are you really not afraid of them rebelling?"
"What are you rebelling against, you're a bunch of worthless people. Ah... Second Prince, I'm not talking about you, you're my good brother. Come on, let's have some tea. There are military rules. You can't drink during a war. When this war is over, I'll treat you to a nice drink."
The second prince, Yelu Shu, was even more depressed. "General, you probably don't know how powerful the Thunder Army is!"
"Hahahaha," He Sandao laughed, "You probably don't know that the Thunder Army's training method was stolen from our Divine Sword Army. You said that Su Changsheng only learned the basics and wanted to fight our authentic Divine Sword Army. Isn't he courting death?"
"But there are so many of them!"
"Second Prince, fighting a war these days doesn't depend on numbers. I only have 20,000 men. Taking Dading Prefecture is as easy as taking candy from a baby, don't you think? Besides..."
He Sandao poured another cup of tea for Yelu Shu. "You don't know our emperor, but you must have heard of the Desolate Country, right? It's the present-day Chi Le Chuan."
Yelu Shu nodded.
"The former emperor of the Desolate Nation, Tuoba Feng, was also a dignified emperor, but didn't my emperor defeat him and not kill him? Not only did he not kill him, but now Tuoba Feng is the commander of the Great Xia Army Cavalry Corps. This is the magnanimity of my emperor."
"So don't worry. As long as you truly do your best to defend the city, I guarantee with my life that my emperor will definitely look upon you with a new eye."
"Let me be frank. The Liao Dynasty is so far away from Daxia. My emperor might make it an autonomous region, just like he did in Chi Le Chuan. Now, the only two male members of the royal family left are you and the fifth brother, Yelu Shuai. There's only one governor-general position, so it depends on your performance."
When Yelu Shu heard this and thought about it carefully, he felt that this statement made some sense, after all, there was the example of Chi Lechuan.
His mind suddenly became active, and he whispered, "There is another prince!"
"Oh, he won't make it out alive. He met Guan Xiaoxi, who is much more ruthless than me in killing people. Don't worry, the prince is probably dead."
Yelu Shu was shocked. "So... Daxia is attacking Liao from two different locations this time?"
"We are brothers. I won't hide it from you. This time, it's a big deal. We're sending troops from three locations, including a full 400,000 Great Xia Army soldiers chasing after Su Changsheng."
"So we only need to defend Dading Prefecture for four days. If the city isn't taken within four days, that damn Thunder Legion will be finished."
"Once all these enemies are dead, Second Prince, you will be a member of Daxia. My emperor will reward you according to your merits. I will also put in a few good words for you and ensure that you will live a glorious life in the future!"
Yelu Shu was overjoyed. He bowed and said, "Then... I would like to thank you very much, General He!"
"Don't be so distant. You call me Sanda and I call you Brother Shu. It's like this, we are all citizens of Daxia. After all, we are all here for Daxia!"
"Okay, okay, Sandao, everything is for Daxia!"
"To ensure your contribution, Brother Shu, I suggest that you personally supervise your troops and welcome your Su Fang army into the city. Leave the defense to Tang Qianjun, he will arrange it. All you need to do is make the Su Fang army surrender, and that will be a great achievement!"
Yelu Shu stood up, his expression excited. "Okay, I'll go to the outer city wall and wait for the Su Fang army to arrive. You can send someone to follow me. The Su Fang army is my personal army, and I guarantee their loyalty to Daxia!"
He Sandao waved his hand. "How distant your words are! We are brothers. What's the most important thing for brothers? Trust! I believe Brother Shu won't have second thoughts. I'm waiting for good news from Brother Shu!"
"Then... I will leave."
"No need to see me off. After this battle, we brothers will drink and chat happily!"
"good!"
Cui Mingyue watched helplessly as He Sandao tricked Yelu Shu into becoming lame. When Yelu Shu left the imperial study, there was indeed no soldier following him. He walked briskly, as if he had found new hope.
"You...are you really not afraid that he will run away with the Su Fang Army?"
"Mr. Cui, what are you thinking? The world is almost under Daxia's control. Where can he run to?"
He Sandao drank his tea comfortably. "They are both smart people. I have told him everything from my heart. If he still doesn't understand... then he has lived a dog's life."
Of course Yelu Shu did not run away, he also understood the situation in the world.
No country can stop Daxia.
